Another "can you top this" stunt masquerading as art. If he wants to make a meaningful statement about rape maybe he should go work at a rape crisis center. Like that comment says, he'll get lots of attention which is what he's looking for.

Because as an artistic gesture, it’s one of the most impactful I can think of.

Rape as a gesture? Impactful?? Interesting ways of describing it.

I had my first breakthrough with an installation that was to be the prototype for this current one. It was called THE PUNCH-YOU-IN-THE-FACE TUNNEL.

DUDE STOLE MY IDEA!!

But seriously, um, is this a joke??

Quote:

It was the same set-up as THE RAPE TUNNEL except at the end of the tunnel I’d punch the subject in the face instead of raping him or her. The impetus was completely reactionary to the current state of art, and motivated by pure frustration.

So his "art" is an excuse to act on his frustrations too. Lovely. From now on I'm going to do whatever the hell I want and call it art.
